The Language Of Nails.

He who has white spots on his nails ID
fond of the society of ladies, but is tickle
In his attachments. He who keeps them
well rounded at the tips is a proud man.
He whose nails are detached from the
finger at the further extremities, and
when cut showing q larger proportion of
the finger than usual, ought never to get
married, as il would be a wonder il he
were master in his own house, for short
nails betoken patience, good nature, and,
above all, resignation under severe trials.
Nails which remain long after being
cut level with the finger end are a sign
of generosity. Transparent nails with
light red mark a cheerful, gentle and
amiable disposition. Lovers with trans.
parent nails usually carry their passion
TO the verge of madness. If you come
across a man with long and pointed nails
you may take il for granted that he is
either a player Of the guitar, a tailor, or
an attorney. He who keeps his nails
somewhat long, round and tipped with
black is a romantic poet.
The owner of very round and smooth
nails is of a peaceahle and conciliatory
disposition. He who has the nail of his
right thumb slightly notched is a regular
g~lutton, even nibbling at himself, as,
when having nothing eatable at hand, he
falls to biting his WI finger nails. And,
lastly, he who keeps his nails irregularly
cut is hasty and determined. Men who
have not the patience to cut their nails
properly generally come to grief; most Of
them commit suicide or get married.

Russian Spread Eagleism.

When we talk of spread eagleism'
we are generally thinking of the United
States, but the real spread eagleism is
that, not of the American republic, but
of the Russian empire. The Russians
habitually talk of the time when they
will be masters of the whole world, and
if, instead Of writing the facts of our
time, / were tempted to prophesy con-
corning the next century / should have to
admit that, if we exclude America and
Australia and confine our thoughts TO the
Old World alone, it is at least conceivable
that their dreams should one day come
true.
The only foreigner who is known to
the Russian peasantry is the German,
and the name for German and for for
eigner with the peasant is the same, and
the hatred of the 'dumb men," as they
call their German neighbors, is intense.
The peasantry know little Of the English,
and II you listen to their sentiments you
discover that it is their belief that one day
there will be between them and Germany
a war compared with which, their sol
diers say, that Of 1870 was child's play,
and that II Germany wins this will not
be the end, but that wal after wal will
follow until Germany is destroyed. This
feeling is to some extent held in check
by the Russian court, although one day
they may take it up and use it; but court
dislikes are turned for the present less to-
ward Germany than toward Austria

The Cure for ..Blachheads."


Blackhead is generally supposed to be
Q kind Of akin worm, but this is a false
ida The truth is simply this: The skin,
either from the lack Of cleanliness or
activity. or both. has failed TO remove
the waste materials from the pores, and
the blackhead Is formed from dirt adher-
ing to the oily substance Of the gland. |
was recently explaining to a friend what
blackheads were, he having some on his
face, and he Immediately exclaimed,
my face is not dirty" mo-" ! said,
''of course not. but do you use soap when
you wash your face" No, he did not.
.'And do you rub your face hard and dry
after washing?" No, he did not; he
thought rubbing would make the face
red. and IL was red enough now.
That is exactly why his face was red
and sore with pimples. II had not been
rubbed. for that process stimulates the
circulation of the blood in these parts,
which causes a healthy action Of the skin
and removes the waste matter from the
glands. What have been try
ing TO convey is just so sure as you use
plenty of good soap and water and then
rub your face hard until it is perfectly
dry and smooth once a day-but the oft
ener the sooner will good results show
Just so sure will you make great improve
ment in your complexion. Only rub a
little carefully unsil you have toughened
the skin and you will soon be surprised
to find what an amount of rubbing 1t will
bear. Hard rubbing viii make the skin
rs fine as silk, and TO the touch it will feel
like satin. Herald of Health.

A great many of our readers in coun-
try places a testify to the lingering bit
|terness, long drawn out, OF family feuds.
How many a village or small community
contains one or more families divided in
an imterminable quarrel, kept alive by
petty injuries and still more petty jeal-
ousies, and made more sharp by the secret
deep affection, and the strength OF the
mysterious bonds of blood!
II is probable that it .ue to the fric.
ton of the narrow bounds of family life.
Father, mother and children are too otter
shut in by their kinship to act and react
perpetually upon each other, with no OBJ
jects of mutual interest outside Of their
home. In consequence, these objects as
sumo exaggerated proportions; trifine
words and opinions are magnified; petty
defects and faults, seen too close, expand
into crimes, Just as q fly under a micro
scope grows into a monster.
A father who knew the world and
human nature had two sons Of nearly the
same age, who were deeply attached to
each other in childhood. He sent them
to different schools in the same town.
"Are you not afraid that they will be
come ~enstranged from each other by
separation" asked a friend.
''No. They viii not weary Of each
other by revolving in too small a circle.
They come home at night, each with his
little store of experiences and condolences
to relate. Each will keep the charm OF
novelty for the other"
The experiment proved successful. The
brothers grew to manhood, intimate and
faithful friends, their love u~ntarnished by
petty friction.-Youth's Companion.

Resurrection Of the H~ittites.

Capt. Gender Of the Palestine explora-
ton expedition, after the labor Of four
years, has succeeded in deciphering and
t~ranslating the Hittite inscriptions which
have hitherto excited and tormented the
inquisitiveness of orientalists. Ten prin-
cipal texts are known, and he has inter-
preted them all. They have been found
chiefly at Carchemish, Klamath and
Aleppo, though Asia Minor at large has
traces Of the class scattered about Il. 1t
is o fresh and grand stage in the astonish-
ing recent process of resurrection Of a
dead and forgotten people.-London

The idea of the ''transfer pictures"
painted in glaring colors and designed for
children, which they can transfer to their
copy books or other objects by simply
m%oistening the picture or the objects, has
been adopted by German for labelling
bottles, and is likely to be great success.
The label is impressed on the bottle in
generous colors, and a coat of varDish
keeps 1t there, which is a considerable
improvement on the old gum label sys-
tenn. The simplicity Of the process rec
ommends il for a very wide USE
